This year the Mothers & Daughters Committee have decided to raise money for a project which focuses on the genetic analysis of lymphoma stem cells.
If successful, this will be the future of cancer treatment, in essence, tailoring therapy to suit individual patients and thus avoiding unnecessary arduous treatments.
The research, led by Professor Tariq Enver at the UCL Cancer Institute Research Trust, revolves around the identification of genetic
finger prints of individual lymphomas. Once this has been achieved the doctors can be more specific in their choice of drugs and thus improve a patients chance of survival.
Our next function is a Ladies Brunch at The Landmark Hotel, London W1, on Monday 10 October.
We are delighted to have Alex Jones co-presenter of the BBC's 'One Show' as our guest speaker.
